Grizzly Bear’s drummer told @edwarddroste to back off:

Vivian Girls gave props to our friends south of the border:

Baroness finished their new full-length.

As did Converge:

Alec Empire planted the seeds for another potential El-P collaboration:


Fresh off his new full-length, Cage dissed Public Enemies:

Amazing Baby posed the question we’ve been wondering for a while now (“Dickchicken” is an inexplicable graf tag in our Brooklyn neighborhood):

Take that, Spank Rock:

Raekwon the Chef worked on a Dilla video and professed his love for Fruit Loops:

Modeselektor threw down with our favorite dubstep producer:

Jay Reatard’s new record leaked, then he made us feel pretty damn good about putting him on our cover:

Since the Daily Swarm’s doing a mighty fine job of aggregating Michael Jackson material, s/t thought we’d treat this week’s Twitter column as a roundup of tributes (and one tasteless critique) to the King of Moonwalking Better Than You Ever Will. Here’s what we uncovered (click on the screengrabs to follow each artist)…

Drop the Lime gets ready to rumble.

Since the ‘Twitterverse’ is clearly expanding exponentially by the day, self-titled’s decided to sift through the service’s ‘now eating’/'now playing’ posts to find sparring matches and sneaky entertainment news. Not to mention lots of things you didn’t know—and in some cases, didn’t want to know—about your favorite artists.

Here’s what we found this week…

Drop the Lime and Zomby got into a war of words over the latter’s no-show at a New York party (the FADER’s issue release, maybe?)—his second flake-out move in the past year.

To which edIT responded…

Indeed. In happier headlines, Andrew WK kept being Andrew WK:


Amanda Palmer gave white-collar workers hope:

Owen Pallett whipped up a meal for Mayhem’s mad(front)man:

Patrick Wolf and Shakira—split at birth?

And finally, Calvin Harris asked the obvious: Can’t we all just get along?
